The Calgary Knights Lacrosse Association depends on parent and community volunteers to assist in providing excellent coaching and mentorship to our players at all age groups. We welcome those with interest to fill out a coaching application and forward it to the Coaching Director at jorr@backtheblue.ca. In order to coach lacrosse for the Knights, you must obtain the level of CLA certification required for the age group you will be coaching. The fees associated to these courses are covered by the Knights and the CDLA, and a link to information relating to the courses can be found below. All coaches must also obtain a security clearance from the Calgary Police Service (again, the associated fees are covered by the Knights) before becoming coaches. If you have any questions about coaching for the Knights, please contact John Orr at jorr@backtheblue.ca.
Coaching Application - *All coaches need to fill in the application and send to John Orr.*
All Coaching certification information can be found on the CDLA Coach Resources Page
